I have considered that the most authorized person to evaluate
the ideas of this paper is Dr. Randell Mills himself.

Randy Mills is, in my opinion a very remarkable scientist
and a great personality; we had corresponded starting from 1991. My best friend
Mike Carrell and I have constantly and empathically followed the development of
Randy’s ideas and technologies. The technology had to solve problems of
unprecedented difficulty- in my understanding something like taming lightnings
and converting them in usable electric current, making something essentially
discontinuous – continuous; plus working with a plasma with a lot of ballast stuff. Randy’s work is based on his
uniquely revolutionary Theory.

Randy’s website is huge, euphemistically speaking. The
solution he found is unexpected; Mike Carrell who is a highest class electric
engineer is able to understand better the clues and subtleties of it than me.

Anyway, Randy as promptly answered to my question
regarding the Harmony article; however his answer is not very encouraging:

Cold fusion through chemistry at low temperature
is not theoretically possible. Moreover, my view of the Rossi work is
that it is not credible. First generations were a misrepresentation of
hot water as steam and recent cases exploited multiple ground loops through a
metal support frame to show fake heat. It is not making any excess
energy.

I have not commented his understanding of the
Rossi process,

However I told him about the new trends in
CF/LENR that I am promoting on my Blog. The answer:

Appreciate your interest, but you are wasting
your time on cold fusion. It is not possible. Look around the
universe. H chemistry is present under all imaginal conditions.
There is no cold fusion. In contrast the hydrino process is
ubiquitous and comprises over 90% of the mass of the universe.

Unfortunately Dr. Randell Mills is not alone with his
negative enthusiasm toward both classic Cold Fusion and the Rossi technology.

Only a clearly positive Report of the Professors- published
in a journal with a reasonable impact factor as e.g. International Journal of Hydrogen
Energy- where Randy’s teams are publishing -could bring a reversal of the general opinion.

"...you are wasting your time on electric radiators. They are not possible. Look around the universe. H chemistry is present under all imaginal conditions. There are no electric radiators up there. In contrast the hydrino process is ubiquitous and comprises over 90% of the mass of the universe."

Yes, they are focusing exclusively on developing their commercial generator and till it is on the market they will not communicate with te press, with kibitzes and with the bravos (killers). Not doing useless things.Can you answer this question: what can learn Rossi or DGT from the LENR classic community now?

This is the same smear campaign launched against Pons and Fleischman, write another book like "Bad Science" published by our oily friends and crony's who backed that. I wonder how much your friend Dr. whatever you cite is paid by the toxic fission group or if he receives funding from those guys or the oily coal guys. Smart money is on Tesla, where this all really began and has been covered up to hinder mankind and put us in the the dark and polluted age of their greed. Wonder why NASA is taking out so many patents on the invention already and others. This time the genie will not be put back in the bottle. Eliot

Do you know who Randell Mills is? If not see please the BlsckzLight site. He is in a sense competition to LENR and is in a similar situationas LENR- lots of enemies and detractors- but some promisng demos.He is against CF LENR on a theoretical basis

This blog is pro LENR but I think LENR has to solve its problems and has many.

Ok sorry, just get so bent on the flak all these cutting edge inventors trying to take our world to a better place have to go through, like Tesla, Pons, Fleischman, Mills and myself from a bunch of old school greedy thinkers who suppress, destroy and deny great inventions since it will hurt their pocketbooks and nothing ado with the future of the kids.

Dr. Mills has similar detractors saying the same thing about the "Sun Cell" its impossible and doesn't work. My opinion is that they both work. Dr. Mills says he will have a working prototype of the Sun Cell in "18 weeks" I set up a timer when he said that, we are now at 13 weeks and counting. The 18 weeks gets us to December 5th, 2004. Lets see if Blacklight Power can deliver. Who knows when Rossi's "Report" will be released? Hopefully before December. All people want to see is a product that works. How it works can be fleshed out overtime.

That's very funny. Mills has never provided any convincing evidence that the hydrino exists, or that he can provide and demonstrate a full power cycle that actually generates energy.

Mills promised 50kW generators based on his "technology" almost 29 years ago. He said two years at most. So where are they?

His latest nonsense using a huge arc welder supply to make futile bright flashes of light is laughable. It can not make either the power or energy he claims. On heat transfer considerations for its size and geometry ALONE.

Peter, do you know the old English saying, "The pot is calling the kettle black"?

Sorry, my time line was incorrect. I meant 9 years, not 29 years. 29 was a typo. But it's even older than that. Here is a better version from Wikipedia quoting Parks:*""BlackLight Power (BLP), founded 17 years ago as HydroCatalysis, announced last week that the company had successfully tested a prototype power system that would generate 50 KW of thermal power. BLP anticipates delivery of the new power system in 12 to 18 months. The BLP process,[50] discovered by Randy Mills, is said to coax hydrogen atoms into a "state below the ground state", called the "hydrino." There is no independent scientific confirmation of the hydrino, and BLP has a patent problem. So they have nothing to sell but bull shit. The company is therefore dependent on investors with deep pockets and shallow brains." – Park[51]"

Dear Mary,welcome back- despite the fact that some readers are saying your words are vitriolic. But you are both necessary and useful for progress of what you are criticizing.Now re Randy- as i told the problem he has is awfully difficult andhe has tried many solutions- now he has found a way. Wait Mary and see what results will he obtain. It will be a new opportunity to swallow your words and vitriol does not taste good.What Randy dismisses is the old, original "cold fusion imitating hot fusion vision" and this is flawed indeed. LENR is NOT fusion and there are a few researchers worldwide who try to discover what it really is. I think you have read my FQXI essay about infinite interestingness of the world LENR actually useful Energy fromHydrogen Metal Deep Interaction is wonderful.

ABOUT MILLS- my blog is not dedicated to his work, so please do not write more, good or bad about him here- there are good forums or that. I am thinking about what now is called LENR I have my limits. Mills is a neighbor.What Parks says is right or wrong but his style is kindergarrtenish, sorry Bob!Peter

Well, Peter, just for giggles, do the math. Look at the power and energy levels claimed by Mills for his newest device and calculate the heat transfer and coolant flow required to make such a small device not melt down or blow up if the claims are true. It's off by several orders of magnitude. I "back of the envelope'd it" a while back.

Something we have in common is love... for engineering and calculus. I make such analyses routinely and calorimetry, in extended sense heat/b energy balance is a duty for me. Have you read my classic: "Technology, mon amour"?. it is possible will have the opportunity to discuss soon such a balnce for Rossi 2nd 3rd party test. But I have asked you to discuss here only LENRbased issues. Focusing and discipline, please!Peter

I wish you would encourage MY to show us those "back of the envelope" calculations of his. Then maybe you, or someone else of equal skill, could subject his numbers to the same harsh public peer review he has used so harshly against others?I have read MYs posts now for 3 years, and always wondered if he has the background to make his aggressive, usually insulting, accusations. Or, if he is perhaps some 30 year old bum living in his parents basement with too much time on his hands.Only a few times have I ever seen anything that would indicate some high level of expertise in the fields he professes to know. And on those few occasions it could easily have been a Wikipedia cut/paste job.
